Organiser Jenny Bevan said while the event was planned to “provide a great weekend for hot rodding participants”, it was also about giving back to the local community.
Through event fundraising a total of $4500 has been donated to the area’s Free Clinic Bus Inc., a charity dedicated to assisting locals with transportation to medical appointments and treatments.
This figure included $250 donated by the Tea Gardens Lions Club, who received a $750 donation for offering their famous cooking skills throughout the event held from 14-16 March.
The Rod Run kicked off on Friday night with a registration and welcome dinner at Reflections Hawks Nest.
At 8am on Saturday morning, the hot rods lined up for a scenic cruise to the Tea Gardens waterfront, where they set up a “Show and Shine” display and market stalls.
On Saturday night the action moved to Hawks Nest Golf Club for an awards presentation and auction.
